Starting off

Hello everyone,

I am a newcomer to the field of information science/librarianship. A friend from my MSIS program passed along the news of this project, and it sounded like a great way to get some ideas for moving my career along, as well as for connecting with fellow professionals in the field.

When I say I am a newbie, I mean VERY new - my degree is still in progress. I've had a bit of experience in a variety of library settings though, and have begun attending conferences (my first national one was SLA just last week). I am also pursuing a Master's in History and am hoping to use the two degrees in some combination in my future work (this is assuming that I maintain my sanity in the process!)

I've blogged for personal purposes before, but never is a professional sense. I am looking forward to this project, to reading other blogs, and hopefully meeting some new folks. If there are any other students out there, I'd love to chat!
